Organizers of the Midtown festival dazzled huge crowds Saturday night (cold and rain dampened Friday night, but didn't dim the view) with entire buildings painted in light, glowing, interactive sculptures, a flourescent bike parade down Woodward Avenue, and dozens of other exhibits that kept streams of people in the neighborhood entertained late into the night.

The Detroit Public Library may have been the jewel of the night. Light artists coated the historic building in a shining, shifting tapestry across from the DIA, where crowds gathered on the steps to watch the display.

A surprising number of exhibits appealed to kids, who were out in in large numbers. Along with kid tents, drums that lit up from the energy of drummers (no electricity required), a glowing neon robot at the DIA, and a cotton-candy-popcorn-fueled dance party at MOCAD were draws for children up for a night out in the city.

Saturday night was impressive accomplishment for Midtown and Dlectricity organizers, leaving many on Twitter to openly hope for the event's return next year. (Bigger? Brighter?)
